    Lipton learned the violin as a child before joining cinema orchestras providing the accompaniment to silent movies. He began playing professionally in the band led by Murray Hedges, before joining the Billy Cotton Band in 1925 and making his first recordings. He left Cotton to form his own dance band in 1931.
